1. Nice endorsement. Smart man.

5. The McCain campaign hasn't exactly been friendly to the Arab-American

crazy rally lady: "he's an Arab".

McCrazy: "no maam, he's a decent family man".

Outrageous response.

[Sodan]

11. I agree. I don't think Fareed is an Arab though.

[Liberal_in_LA]

13. ooops. I thought he was arab American. My mistake.

[Barack_America]

2. A welcome, though not unexpected endorsement.

After all, Zakaria is a great champion of diplomacy, which is the centerpiece of Obama's foreign policy plan.

Still, I think the world of Zakaria and am very glad that he shared the reasoning behind his choice with all of us.

3. K & R

4. "... not good economic policy, but magic." Now THAT is direct and to the point!

[Jack Rabbit]

6. A very well-reasoned endorsement

Obama has been getting a few of those lately.

7. McCain - the best of America's past. Obama - the hope for the future.

[Joe the Liberal]

8. Great endorsement, and very well said. n/t

9. Another America-Hater Endorses That One.

Zakaria's thoughtful,respectful,well-reasoned examination of the candidate's policies and abilities reveals him to be another bomb-throwing tool of the Liberal Left-Wing Media. I mean really, what kind of name is Fareed Zakaria anyway? What gives him the right to openly express his opinion ........and when can we get rid of that damned Constitution?!!!

10. When McCain foreign policy was played out on a map it was twice as horrifying. He'd basically >

p*** off everyone.

[GinaMaria]

14. that was frightening, wasn't it?

It is a cold war mentality, in a world much more interdependent and less isolated than during the cold war. I've always liked Fareed's commentary and assessments. He is respected by many.

12. Calling McCain a "good man" is a stretch n/t

[Mr Rabble]

15. Establishment boot licker jumps on bandwagon.

This guy is a shill for American empire, and frankly I am disturbed that he endorsed Obama. A quick look through Zakaria's positions over the last 20 years show him to be nothing more than a servant of power and an apologist for imperial violence.

16. kick!

17. he would be a great pick for sec of state even if he is very young

maybe he can be deputy sec of state and in 4 or 8 years he can be sec of state.
